Although I myself is no a vlc developer I have asked the same question and
therefore know the answer. Acording to gildas bazin the reason why vlc do
not use the live.com implementation of rtsp for serverside is that it would
require vlc to rewrite a significant part of all of the live.com code (I
think that was what needed to be re-coded)

So atm it doesn't look like vlc will use live.com anytime soon, so do not
get your hopes up for RTCP in the nearest future.

If what I stated is flawed feel free to correct me gildas :)
